Dr. Christine Raber of SSU’s Master of Occupational Therapy program was selected for
her outstanding work in rehabilitation of dementia patients.

Dr. Christine Raber, Professor of Shawnee State University’s Master of Occupational
Therapy program, was selected as the feature researcher in OhioLINK’s Researcher Profiles
for her outstanding work in rehabilitation of dementia patients.

Mary Cummings, Research and Instruction Librarian at the Clark Memorial Library, is
a member of OhioLINK’s User’s Services panel and nominated Dr. Raber as an outstanding
researcher.

“To me, nominating Dr. Raber just made sense. Her research to improve the quality
of the lives of people with dementia is admirable,” said Cummings. “She has presented
her research all around the world, including in the UK, Sweden and Japan. She is an
incredibly intelligent and professional woman and I admire all the work she puts into
her research. ”

Dr. Raber utilized the many benefits of OhioLINK, including its array of search engines,
and resources at the CML to facilitate her mission to improve the lives of those living
with dementia.

“I feel very honored that my research was highlighted by OhioLINK, but really the
profile underscores the essential services and support of the librarians and staff
at CML. SSU is very fortunate to have the depth and breadth of library services, including
OhioLINK, to support scholarship and a culture of inquiry at all levels on our campus,”
said Dr. Raber.
